Howdy @lucid_design - I like the fact that you use a lot of unusual shapes in your packaging. It’s nice to get away from boring square and rectangular designs.

Hello everyone, I’m excited to join the community. I’m an enthusiastic grower of many species. Cannabis has been the main focus for almost 10 years. I have a wide experience range from using nutes, hydro, organic nutes, no till, and aquaponics.
At this point I focus on organic no till and aquaponics. I’ve had a long road staying legal. My experience has very much formed the way I look at cannabis, buisness and general humanity… my wife and I are fortunate in that we purchased a farm and just recently passed our final inspection and received our grow permit in Washington.
I am ordering a greenhouse and will be building a multi dimensional regenerative grow that focuses on production high grade cannabis flowers and solventless extracts.
I’d love to share my learnings as they have been hard earned in an era where we didn’t have the information exchange around cannabis and organic growing that we do know.
When I started aquaponics there was very little info available so a lot of what I had to do was trial and error. Lots of error. Error equals crop failures and hard financial times. I’d love to save folks from my pit falls.
I truely believe most of our worlds issues could be solved with a change in our agricultural practices.
Ok enough about that. I’m stoked to get to know you all and learn from you guys too! #opensource

Welcome @darlinggrowers and congrats on your farm purchase! Do you have any photos of your aquaponics setup? It seems like that’s a less popular method so I’m always curious to see them in action.

I have a few on my instagram. It’s Dutch blooms. That is my brand in Washington. I was formerly serving the medical community and was well received. Here are a few photos of the dual root zone planting. Top layer of the pots is rich soil, the bottom 1/3 is inert media. The roots tap down thru the soil to the inert media where they access the nutrient rich fish water.
This teqnique allows me to top dress without contaminating my fish water.

Greetings!
My name is Cody Yeager and I am with a Company by the name of URB Organic. I am very thankful to have been approved to join this community. I was born and raised in a Northern California town by the name of Grass Valley. I have been involved with Cannabis since 2004.
URB Organic is an amazing Poly-Microbial inoculate with a University developed and history of success in over 200 different plant species. I first discovered the product reading Popular Science magazine in 2009. At that time I was using Stament’s product lines for microbial life functionality in my soils. I reached out to the organization and began conducting some of the initial field tests with URB with MMJ. The results led me to drop all my traditionally used microbial supplementation.
I am here to offer answers to any questions you may have about the product. I am also offering free samples to anyone who would like to give our claims a shot. We have big plans as far as fundraising goes as well as business proposals which incorporate everything from equity to royalty deals which are extended to cultivators, hydroponic supply stores, and dispensaries. We are a couple rounds out before we hit seedinvest and incorporate our crowdfunding investing phase. We expect that the company will be at the very least 10% owned by growers.
Enough on all that,
We are a proven product in a NEW market and here is a little about the product…
our website is urb-organic.com
-OMRI certification comes within the next 3 months and is guaranteed because our other technologies are already OMRI certified. The URB formulation is vastly different and has a 3-5 year shelf life thanks to the addition of spore forming microbes.
-The formulation has been tweaked for Marijuana.
-We have seen 20-40% increase in yields, increase in THC%, even with 25% reductions in fertilizer inputs.
Our new formulation consists of bacillus and trichoderma only… specifically listed with concentration levels below
-Bacillus subtilis 2x10(6th) CFU/ml
-Bacillus lichenformis 1x10(8th) CFU/ml
-Bacillius subtilis subsp. spiziizeni 2x10(8th)CFU/ml
-Bacillis pumilus 1x10(7th) CFU/ml
-Bacillis Magaterium 1x10(6th) CFU/ml
-Trichoderma harzianum 1x10(6th) CFU/ml
You know how microbials work so I don’t have to get into this with you… if you don’t, hit me up. We have MMJ specific scientific studies that are up and coming in September and October to give more backing to these claims. Over 200 other kinds of crops have been University studied and boast those results.
-We are currently in 15 stores in OH and reports are that URB is replacing every other microbial on the shelves. I can provide contact info if you would like to speak with the owners.
-The humic we use is the highest quality and makes up 12% of our bottle. It is triple screened so it will not clog sprayers or feeding systems. There is also a high quality fulvic within the formulation.
-URB works in Hydrosystems with all mediums on the market and of course any soil mixture.
I am sure I will find a better place to provide all this information. Thanks for having me in the forum, I look forward to providing a cost effective yield increasing organic solution to you and your farms. I look forward to growing relationships which help to push the industry standards and allow us all to practice sustainable cultivation. Together we can all “Grow Higher.”
Greenest Regards,
Cody

Hi everyone!
Thanks for building this community and sharing your knowledge and questions - I am looking forward to the learning and connections ahead.
My name is Sunny Kaercher, I work with Miller Soils and am proud to be in charge of education, outreach & sustainability (amongst other things!).
As a company, we offer soilless grow medias and organic amendments. All of our inputs are OMRI certified and sourced as locally as possible. Miller Soils was founded by foresters and biochar producers who recognized the need for better grow media. Biochar is a cornerstone of our company, for both the horticultural benefits and as low-impact input. Not only does it increase water & nutrient retention, but also bolsters overall fertility by providing habitat for key members of the soil food web - namely bacteria & fungi. Please reach out if you’d like to know more!
On a personal side, I’ve found myself working in the cannabis space as part of my journey to shift how we as humans interact with our natural environment. Integrating good design, systems thinking & a spiritual connection is a recipe for success. Healthy soil is a litmus for understanding these things in unison, and will lead to happy, healthy, delicious plants!
Check out www.millersoilsllc.com to see more of what we’re about!
